D'awwwww!

March 19th is full of things that make us say "Awww!" In 1915, Percival Lowell took a snapshot of the now-former planet Pluto. (In the words of Jonathan Coulton, "Promise me you will always remember who you are.") Konami Company, developer of our favorite cheat code, was founded on this day in 1973. And in 1986, the 11th and 12th dot-com domains were registered. Remember what they were? Yup, IBM.com and Sun.com, both still in use to this day.

The Annoy-a-tron pranking device has been one of the most popular ThinkGeek products almost as long as we've been on the internet. So we thought, "How can it be MORE EVIL?" Enter the Ringtone Annoy-a-tron. Like our standard Annoy-a-tron, this small device can be hidden anywhere. Set the volume and select your ringtone from a selection of six familiar tunes. Then stand back and try to keep a straight face as the people around you search desperately for the phone that's ringing at random intervals throughout the day. One battery will last you up to 4 weeks... or until someone finds the device and smashes it with their Hulk-rage. Hide it well, friends!The ThinkGeek Ringtone Annoy-a-tron - WHERE IS THAT PHONE?

This set of two pint glasses is sure to bring the magic to your next party (or quiet evening at home watching the BBC). Each pint glass features pale blue artwork of the TARDIS on one side and the Doctor Who logo on the other. Fill the glass with cold beer--or custard!--and the TARDIS will turn bright TARDIS blue. Don't forget to hand wash these glasses; magic and dishwashers don't mix.Doctor Who Disappearing TARDIS Pint Glass - Beverage magic

At the end of Conan the Barbarian (the original, not the blech recent one), we see Conan as an old man on his throne. And what do you think he was doing all that time? That's right: gaming. Conan loved RPGs, and he had his best wizard invent this electronic gauntlet. It's got a bunch of gaming features built in (timer, stopwatch, dual counter), but the best are the single and double dice. Select what sided die/dice you want and flick your arm as if you were hurling them to the ground. The gauntlet will roll them for you. With this barbarian-tastic futuristic armband, you'll be the greatest gamer, the awesomest adventurer, and the most dynamic dungeon master the world (this or any other) has ever known!+10 Electronic Dice Barbarian Gauntlet - Shake to roll

There's nothing that beats a good snowball fight... if you're on the winning side. Unfortunately, this activity can only happen when there's enough snow on the ground to make snowballs. We wanted snowballs for all, which is why we love Snowball Anytime. This package contains twenty 3" wide faux snowballs, which are soft enough to be kind to people and furniture but also oddly crunchy like a real snowball. Have an indoor snowball fight anytime with no muss, fuss, or slush.Snowball Anytime - No muss, no fuss, no slush
